Today's Prediction About Tomorrow's Primaries

This disastrous outcome will be positioned by Hillary's staff as proof that she's coming back.

He won 11 states in a row. Now we split 4. The momentum is ours!

On the Republican side, McCain cleans up, except that Huckabee does better in Texas than anyone thought he would. Huckabee drops out of the race Thursday and announces that he's going to tour with Tony Orlando next summer.

Finally, third-party candidate Ralph Nader announces that if elected, he'll impeach former President Bush and former Vice President Cheney. Seriously.

Comments

Ok, I'll take the bait. I think the results will show a small trend back to Hillary. She will do better than expected taking Ohio in greater numbers than polling indicated, and a virtual tie, to ever-so-slight victory in Texas. This will completely screw up the Democratic delegate calculus spinning Wolf Blitzer into a masturbatory frenzy unseen since Limbaugh saw the Dukakis tank video.

O'Bama forces will attribute the results to Republican meddling (the forces of the politics of cynicism donchaknow), but the initial stages of buyers remorse will be closer to the truth.
